Raiders of peasant girls

Chapter 314 Punishment One
Jingyao clearly reprimanded the Qin family's crimes one by one, and every adult man of the Qin family could not escape. It can be said that the entire Qin family was mobilized to invade the property of the Wang family, especially colluding with officials to frame them.And insulting Jingyao, Qin Lizheng, Mrs. Qin and others couldn't escape.As for the forced marriage, that is the crime of the youngest son of the Qin family, but regarding the death of Uncle Ma, Aunt Ma said that the three sons of the Qin family, the eldest, the third, and the youngest, all did it.Even the two grown-up grandsons of the old master did the same, so this is a conspiracy.

As for the flood issue, it was entirely Qin Lizheng's matter. Lizheng was also appointed by the imperial court. Of course, the premise was that he would be elected by the big clan in the village and report to the county government, and then the county government would issue a notice of appointment and dismissal.Therefore, Qin Lizheng was regarded as the lowest official in the imperial court, and he also received rice and grain salary every year.In this case, he has the responsibility to lead everyone through the difficulties when the disaster strikes.But at that time, Qin Lizheng fled ahead of time. Not only did he not warn the villagers when he knew the water level was rising, but he fled ahead of time. As an escaped official, he could be sentenced directly.And according to the fact that all the officials involved in the flood were ransacked and exiled by the whole family, if Qin Lizheng at that time thought of reporting him, the Qin family would not be able to escape.

Jingyao was not very familiar with this law at first, but Helian Fenghua reminded her that summer when she went to Lingnan, but at that time she was still busy in Lingnan with lard and fruit, and she was far away in Lingnan. Don't care about it.

Back then, Helian Fenghua had just arrived in the barracks for more than half a year, and he was no longer in Hexi Village, so it was not easy for Helian Fenghua to help with this matter.Later, although she and Helian Fenghua had time to deal with these matters, she felt that it would be better to wait until she stood in a certain position before trampling people under her feet. Qin Lizheng's family has lived in peace until now.

In addition, Qin Lizheng was able to live in the village for so long after committing such a crime. It was because the people in the village hadn't read much, and they didn't know the laws of the court very well.It is estimated that if she did not say these things today, Qin Lizheng would not be able to live to the end of her life.

In fact, Qin Lizheng was very aware of these crimes. As Lizheng, he was naturally literate and knew a little about the law.So every time Jingyao said one thing, Qin Lizheng felt his heart sink a little bit, and when Jingyao said the last one, Qin Lizheng immediately limp on the ground.

Although the youngest son of the Qin family didn't understand the other crimes, and he didn't know what punishment would be, but he was clear about one thing, that is, the incident of forced marriage and beating to death was caused by him.As the saying goes, killing pays for life, but he can't escape when someone is dead.But not necessarily, when the accident happened that day, no outsiders were present, they were all from their Qin family, so he would not plead guilty.

"Uncle Ma's family was not killed by our family. We didn't miss it. He stepped on a stone and fell to death. If we said that we killed him, who saw him? Is there any evidence? Is it because you are officials? Can you sentence the people indiscriminately? I don't accept it!"

The few words the youngest son of the Qin family yelled were well-founded, and Jing Yao couldn't help but admire them. She didn't expect that the youngest son of the Qin family had a bit of a brain when he encountered a problem.But today is not something he can escape.

"Uncle Ma's family went to your house, but he was carried out of your house sideways. So what evidence do you have to prove that you are innocent?" Without giving the youngest son of the Qin family a chance to continue, " Evidence is nothing. Even if you come up with evidence to prove that Uncle Ma was not killed by your family, so what? Don’t try to escape, and remember that all the crimes you committed are not as good as your father’s last crime. , That one was something that everyone in the village knew at the time. The princess doesn’t need to investigate too much, just a few people from the village are random witnesses. Oh, by the way, I guess you still don’t know your father Then what is the punishment for the crime of dereliction of duty and escape? Master Hong still needs to trouble you to explain it."

When Nalin County Prime Minister pleaded guilty, Hua Yi found a chair for Jing Yao from the back room.At this time, she spoke in a leisurely and slow tone, leaning back on the chair, she looked more lazy and full of momentum.Coupled with the maid guards behind him, it became even more ostentatious.

This made Mr. Hong see it, and he had to sigh, it is not an ordinary person who can come out of Lingnan and get to where he is today by himself.He can never offend such a person, who knows if he will go further in the future?

Slightly restraining his mind, Mr. Hong said loudly, "I obey your orders!" Mr. Hong cupped his hands at Jingyao.Turning to Qin Lizheng and the others, he said, "The law of this dynasty is that those who eat the king's salary regardless of their rank will abide by this law. Those who abandon the people and flee in times of disaster are guilty. The crimes are divided into natural disasters and man-made disasters. When natural disasters are like plagues, they abandon the people and ignore them Those who flee from other cities, such as those who do not resettle the victims after an earthquake and stay away from the disaster area, those who watch from a distance when flood disasters come, etc., and man-made disasters, such as those who defect from the enemy's attack on the city, and those who do not organize the people to resist the defenders when bandits are rampant."

After a pause, Lord Dunhong continued, "The punishment for these major crimes has been determined by the number of people injured in the disaster. The number of people affected by the disaster is more than a hundred. The main culprit was convicted and exiled. People, the main culprit will be hanged, exiled from three ethnic groups, more than [-] people will be affected, the main culprit and the men from the three ethnic groups will be executed, and the nine ethnic groups will be exiled!"

Master Hong's words are not only not slow, but orderly, basically he knows everything that should be known, and everything that should be clear is also clear.Several members of the Qin family in the yard listened to Mr. Hong's words, but everyone reacted differently. Qin Lizheng just closed his eyes and fell to the ground. The youngest son of the Qin family peed on his pants, and the old lady Qin's eyes were white, and she shrunk like that. Like having a stroke.

"Lin Xiancheng said that you are lucky. You only accepted a concubine. The concubine's natal family is not a relative. Although the old lady of the Qin family is called your grandmother-in-law, seriously, she is nothing. It seems that you escaped." Doomed."

At this moment, Lin Xiancheng listened to Mr. Hong's words, and then Jing Yao's words, and his heart was like waves hitting waves, one wave went up and the other went down.Now he is really glad that he just took a concubine, if this is his wife, he might be implicated.

You must know that there were actually only a few hundred people in the village when the flood happened, and Qin Lizheng's guilt was nothing more than exile himself.However, because the floods were so severe that year, and hundreds of thousands of people were affected, the current emperor was extremely furious. As long as they escaped early in this disaster, they would all be punished by the nine tribes.
